Golden Software Enhances Grapher Package with Faster Run Times and Improved Functionality Across Plot Types

The new version released is faster and offers a broader, more consistent selection of features across all plot types.

Grapher is used extensively by scientists and engineers in oil & gas operations, environmental consulting, climate research, mineral exploration, and academic pursuits. The package offers deeper insights into diverse data sets, including chemical, physical, geologic and geospatial data, through 80 different 2D and 3D plotting types.

The newest release of Grapher, which is downloadable this week to all users with active maintenance agreements, includes these enhancements:

Bubble Plot Legend Addition – Ternary, 2D and 3D Bubble Plots are now easier for a viewer to interpret and understand thanks to Bubble Legends. Displayed in the same colors, gradients and shapes of the bubble, these legends describe the third variable that determines the size of the bubble.

Box Plot Improvements – Two enhancements have been made to Box Plots. The first is adjustable box widths for either manual resizing or to indicate the size of each sample set. Previously only available in one default width, the box width can be varied and shown in inches or percentages to correspond with the number of values in each sample. The second improvement is the addition of the Criteria Filter, which gives the user greater control over excluding or including data, such as unwanted outliers, in the plot.

Ternary Plot Improvements – The Criteria Filter described above has been added to Ternary Plots. A second important enhancement is the Clipping function which allows users to easily snip off data they do not want displayed in their Ternary Plot. As available in other plot types, Clipping can be applied at axes limits or by values.

File Open Dialog Enhancement – Users can now resize the File Open dialog for better, more complete viewing of their data paths, making it easier to navigate files.

Faster Run Times – Routine functions such as Copy/Paste and project file loading have been dramatically improved to run faster than before when projects are connected to large amounts of data.
